Wong Tai Sin Temple and The Walled City of Kowloon
Wong Tai Sin is famous for the many soothsayers that are outside the temple. Quite a change from the quiet, reflective world of the Chi Lin Nunnery. There are lines of people crowding in with burning joss sticks, which makes manouevering around dangerous, and fortune tellers jostling each other for the next customer. The Walled City is now a park, but used to be a fort, then a triad ghetto. Parts of the wall still are there, but it's quite tranquil now.
